Summertime on Wheels

Two chocolate-vanilla swirls and a magic rainbow sprinkle bar...that'll be 25 cents, please! Sweet summertime on wheels, this ice cream truck playhouse lets kids pretend to dole out cool treats, even when that familiar melody isn't filling the neighborhood. The easy-to-assemble truck features fresh, fun graphics inspired by the real thing. Made from 33% recycled cardboard, it's a non-toxic, recyclable, year-round treat. Designed in Brooklyn; made in Pennsylvania.

First, let me say this ice cream truck is darling. It is very cute and a big hit on Christmas morning, but a week later it is in pieces in the corner and I am debating how many times I can put it back together without it becoming forever broken. I have multiple small children, so it could be that they are particularly rough on it. If anyone has any suggestions on increasing durability, I am all ears.

No

Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend

Merchant response:We're glad this playhouse was such a hit. The fact that it's falling apart a week later though – not so fun.
